That's not pure CSS though. It's a jpeg.

Actually, Nintendo does still sell copies of the original Mario (and other Mario stuff obviously), so I think you were downvoted for suggesting that big names would even consider something like this. It's not realistic.

Prepaid cards are rejected?

What are the parameters for "active development"? The "Mario World" clone hasn't been touched in a year, but is listed as having active development. Edit: Sorry.. was 1 year. The only more recent commit was a translation update 6 months ago

You can ask, but you probably won't get it. Some people don't have the luxury of choosing which job they take. Sometimes there's only one.

There are two Excel courses and an Office 365 course mixed in with those. They should be moved to a "Software Application" section or something.

Had no idea. Thanks for the heads up :)

It's a play on the name of the site. Mt. Gox -> MtG: OX

They provided a service that would shell into your servers and install the software needed to run your app for you. It was meant to take the burden of writing chef/puppet scripts to build and scale your app environment

"This means all of website visitors that can browser with SPDY, do browser using SPDY." I like it

That's pretty common practice so you don't get the IP of the machine your web server is on passed to the app instead of the user's ip.

Yeah. The "Ready? Try Ghost" button at the end is just an ad for their kickstarter project. They should have just stated what it was up front.

My favorite are the people who pirate the game at release and then buy it when it's in the bargain bin for $5, as if that undoes the initial act of piracy: "See? I bought it!"

Yes. I haven't seen one that large though. It usually looks like this: http://www.minusmanhattan.com/

The claim is that they will have something usable in 6 months. I'll revisit it then and see if they make that promise :)

If I remember correctly, an earlier version of Appcelerator's Titanium let you do that. But they killed it along the way, I believe.

Is there some tech law that states that when someone does a benchmark or comparison, it is almost always incorrect? There should be.

Requiring the employees to attach their names to answers publicly is guaranteed to produce nothing but puff pieces. Now if the answers were also anonymous, insomuch as that only the site knows who the employee is, you might end up with some

One thing affects the long term health of others around you. The other thing passes within a few moments. They are not comparable.

I wouldn't be surprised if Shoply has a run in with Shopify in the future. Such similar names in the same space

Honestly, I have never seen or heard of anyone actually being sued for a false takedown notice. They happen all the time though.

Yeah, I've definitely never used it. I barely use any of the bluetooth stuff. That explains why I'v never run across any problems

What does A2DP stand for? I've likely never used the feature personally.

They are not talking about Ubuntu being closed. They are saying that Ubuntu would drift toward being more like Mac OS X, but be more open than Apple is with Mac OS X.
